How do you cut out the 'dillos?  Specifically the area where a bottle cap fits.  



I don't think it's milled with a traditional cutter judging by the nearly square inside corners.  



Water jet?  Laser?



If it's secret that's fine too, but this amateur machinist is curious.



Thanks.

I would guess they use waterjets.

I have only used manual machines, so I didn't know what kind of definition one could achieve with water.

That theory sure would explain the matching saw marks on both sides......

Water jets are very precise and you can cut remarkably fine patterns with them. They usually mix garnet with the water as an abrasive. This lets them cut sharper edges and with tighter tolerances. They operate around 60,000 PSI, so there's quite a bit of power behind it.

This is like asking a magician how he performed all his tricks at the end of the show.  No answer coming

Forged from the molten slag of broken A.R.M.S. castoff's, shaped by precision rifle fire and meth-fueled wombats with K-Bar's, after being quenched in a solution of Swan tears and the blood of a sworn virgin.



When the supply of fresh virgins in GD runs out, they'll have to perfect a new process.  But we shouldn't have to worry about that until the definition of "sex" is amended to include a credit-card transaction and high-speed internet access...

Someone needs to apply for a job at LT and act as a spy for us, then that person can get us videos of all the LT goodness.
